8516FY

Overview

The Renesas Electronics 8516FY is a clock buffer functioning as a 1-to-16 LVDS fanout buffer. This component is classified under Clock Buffers within the Clock & Timer ICs subcategory. The device operates with Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) standards to distribute clock signals across multiple loads. It is currently listed as obsolete by the manufacturer. The product was supplied in Reel or Cut Tape packaging formats, with a factory pack quantity of 250 units.

Feature Summary

• 1-to-16 LVDS Fanout Buffer configuration
• Clock Buffer category within Clock & Timer ICs
• Obsolete lifecycle status

Applications

Procurement Notes

The 8516FY is an obsolete component from Renesas Electronics. Availability is restricted, and Mouser indicates that the product is not sold in certain regions. Verification of current stock levels and alternative sourcing channels is required before procurement planning. Compliance documentation such as RoHS status should be reviewed against specific project requirements due to the end-of-life status.

Selection Notes

Designers requiring a 1-to-16 LVDS fanout buffer must account for the obsolete status of the 8516FY. Since this part is no longer actively manufactured, direct replacement may not be possible through standard distribution channels. Evaluation of newer Renesas LVDS buffer families or third-party compatible components with matching electrical specifications and pinouts is necessary for new designs.

Part Context

The 8516FY belongs to the broader Renesas clock and timer integrated circuit portfolio. It serves as a legacy solution for distributing low-voltage differential signaling clocks in systems requiring high fanout capabilities. As an obsolete part, it represents previous generations of clock distribution technology utilized in older electronic equipment designs.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided data. Due to the obsolete status, engineers must identify functional equivalents based on LVDS electrical characteristics and package compatibility.
